Do You Know? Dulquer Salmaan Earned Shockingly Low Salary For His First TV Commercial Which Was Something Like 2 Crores For Him

Dulquer Salmaan is currently quite busy with his upcoming movie Chup’s promotions. The actor, who used to work at a 9 to 5 job before stepping into the film industry for real, had debuted through a TVC when he was a kid. Talking about that incident and how it had nothing to do with who he is dad, the Sita Ramam actor revealed some fun facts.

Dulquer, son of Mammootty, has been in the industry for more than a decade now, and in the last few years, the Karwaan actor has gotten recognition and appreciation for his work. But did you know he started his career with a TVC when he was just nine or ten years old?

In an interview with Curly Tales, Dulquer Salmaan opened up about how he got his first TVC and how much was his first pay cheque. Talking about it, he said, “I was 10 years old. This has nothing to do with my dad, this is not some nepotism advantage. I was randomly picked by Mr. Rajiv Menon’s ad agency. They came to my school to pick kids for a TVC and I was one of those who got picked. They gave me Rs 2,000 for that.”
